Wikidata link edits[संपादन]
Tiven,
Today, I noticed that I do not see the link on the left menu bar to edit/add wikidata item to a newly created or unlinked article, for example, नैनिताल तलाव. Can you investigate this a bit?
Thanks,

- Some articles have tables that can be sorted in different ways. For example a list of countries can be sorted alphabetically but you can click on the size column to sort them by size. If you clicked on the column a second time it would sort the countries from the bottom to the top instead. A third click will now take you back to the original sorting. [७]
- Self-closed tags now work as in the HTML5 specifications. This means you should stop using some of them.

Editing news 2020 #2[संपादन]
Read this in another language • Subscription list for this multilingual newsletter

This issue of the Editing newsletter includes information the Talk pages project, an effort to help contributors communicate on wiki more easily.
- Reply tool: This is available as a Beta Feature at the four partner wikis (Arabic, Dutch, French, and Hungarian Wikipedias). The Beta Feature is called "Discussion tools". The Beta Feature will get new features soon. The new features include writing comments in a new visual editing mode and pinging other users by typing
@
. You can test the new features on the Beta Cluster now. Some other wikis will have a chance to try the Beta Feature in the coming months. - New requirements for user signatures: Soon, users will not be able to save invalid custom signatures in Special:Preferences. This will reduce signature spoofing, prevent page corruption, and make new talk page tools more reliable. Most editors will not be affected.
- New discussion tool: The Editing team is beginning work on a simpler process for starting new discussions. You can see the initial design on the project page.
- Research on the use of talk pages: The Editing team worked with the Wikimedia research team to study how talk pages help editors improve articles. We learned that new editors who use talk pages make more edits to the main namespace than new editors who don't use talk pages.

- अहो शक्य तसे काम चालूच आहे. आजच एक विभाग पूर्ण करुन घातला.
- सतत सगळा वेळ एकाच लेखावर घालविणे हे फलदायी नाही.
- धन्यवाद.
- अभय नातू (चर्चा) २०:५७, २७ जून २०२० (IST)
अभय नातू: मी फक्त एवढेच लक्षात आणून देऊ इच्छितो की, आपण एप्रिल महिन्यात १४ तारखेला या एकाच रोजी दहा पेक्षा अधिक विभाग पडताळले, पुढे मात्र संपूर्ण मे महिन्यात १ उपविभाग, आणि या जून महिन्यात २ विभाग पडताळले गेले. खरचं हा वेग उरलेले १७ विभाग पडताळण्यासाठी ठीक राहिल का! सगळा वेळ एकाच लेखावर घालविणे हे फलदायी नाही हे अगदी खरे आहे पण एका लेखाचे काम १०-१५ महिने करणे हेही फलदायी नसेल. --संदेश हिवाळेचर्चा २१:३१, २७ जून २०२० (IST)
- मी पूर्वी म्हणल्याप्रमाणे मला वेळ मिळेल तसे मी काम करीत आहे. विकिपीडिया संपादन हा माझा प्राथमिक व्यवसाय नसल्याने त्याला नियमितपणे वेळ देता येईलच याची हमी देऊ शकत नाही. त्यातूनही मिळणारा वेळ या लेखावर घालवित आहेच. मराठी विकिपीडियावरील साफसफाई तितकीच महत्वाची आहे. प्रचालक म्हणून हे काम सगळ्यात जास्त महत्वाचे आहे हे तुम्हालाही मान्य असणारच.
- मोठ्या आणि नाजूक विषयांवरील विभागांची पडताळणी करण्यासाठी एकसंध वेळ असायला लागतो. असा कालखंड मिळणे अवघड असते. आता उरलेले बव्हंश विभाग यात मोडतात. घाई करुन विषयाला न्याय न देणे यापेक्षा योग्य प्रकारे हाताळून ते काम हळू का होईना सातत्याने करीत रहावे हे बरे. आता यात पूर्वी इतर सदस्यांच्या प्रयत्नांपेक्षा हे काम निश्चितच जास्त गतीने चालत आहे हे ही तुम्हाला मान्य असेलच.

Recent changes
- A temporary fix helped wikis make their main pages more mobile friendly. This was in 2012. It has not been recommended since 2017. The mobile main page special casing stopped working 14 July. 60 wikis now have main pages that don't work well on mobile. You can see which ones, how to fix it and how to get help in Phabricator. This is the same problem that was reported in Tech News 2020/24 and 2020/26.
Problems
- There is a problem with the interlanguage links. The interlanguage links are the links that help you find a specific page in a different language. The sorting is broken. The developers are working on a solution. [३३]
- Some users keep getting the notifications for the same event. Some of these are old events. [३४]

आत्ताच "technews" विकीमिडिया तंत्रज्ञान समुहद्वरा, कृपया या बदलांबाबत आपल्या ईतर वापरकर्ते व आपले सहकारी यांना माहिती द्या. सर्वच बदलांचा आपल्यावर परिणाम होणार नाही
समस्या / अडचण
- गुरूवार दिनांक २३ जुलै रोजी १७:५० ते १७:५९ UTC दरम्यान Wikidata Query Servive
सर्व चौकशा अपूर्ण राहिल्या. काही चौकशी बराच वेळ अपूर्ण राहिल्या [४२]
- मागील काही आठवड्यांत आंतरभाषिक दूव्यांची मागणी चुकीची होती. ह्या समस्येचा उल्लेख तांत्रिक बातम्यांच्या दोन आठवड्यापुर्विच्या टेकन्यूज३० मध्ये केला होता.ही चुक आता दुरूस्त करण्यात आली आहे. [४३]
- "Use Legacy Vector" च्या वैश्विक प्रधानतेसोबत काही अडचणी आहेत. दोष दुरुस्तीचे विकासकांचे काम सूरू आहे [४४]
- विकीबेस विस्तारातील बगने विकिमीडिया कॉमन्सवरील मुख्य (गॅलरी) नावाच्या जागेवरील "हलवा" आणि "तयार करा" प्रकारांचे संरक्षण अवरोधित केले होते. नवीन संरक्षण जोडले जाऊ शकले नाही आणि विद्यमान संरक्षणाची अंमलबजावणी केली गेली नव्हती, ज्यामुळे काही पृष्ठे हलविता येण्याची शक्यता नव्हती आणि पृष्ठ क्रिएशन. हे आता निश्चित केले गेले आहे. [४५]
या आठवड्यात नंतर होणारे बदल
- व्हिडिओ प्लेयर सोपे आणि अधिक आधुनिकमध्ये बदलतील. या आठवड्यात, वर्तमान बीटा वैशिष्ट्य बर्याच विकिपीडिया विकिसांवरील प्रत्येकासाठी व्हिडिओ प्लेयर होईल. जुना खेळाडू काढला जाईल. [४६]
- वापरकर्त्यांचे जेएस आणि $सीएसएस पृष्ठे आता मोबाइल साइटवर देखील लोड केली जातील. मोबाइल त्वचा शैली लागू करणे कसे टाळता येईल यासाठी आपण दस्तऐवजीकरण वाचू शकता. [४७]
मोनोबुक त्वचेमध्ये $जुना अभिज्ञापक आता नवीन आहे. याचा परिणाम सीएसएस आणि जेएस गॅझेटवर होऊ शकतो. स्थलांतर करण्याच्या सूचना T255953 मध्ये आढळू शकतात. यापूर्वी अंक 27 मध्ये उल्लेख केला होता
बॉट प्रचालक नियमितपणे चर्चा संग्रहित करण्यासाठी पायविकि बॉट वापरू शकतात. बॉट मोठ्या आर्काइव्ह्ज टाळण्यासाठी काउंटर वापरतो तेव्हा वर्तन बदलले होते. [४८]
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from ४ ऑगस्ट. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from ५ ऑगस्ट. It will be on all wikis from ६ ऑगस्ट (calendar).

Recent changes
- FileImporter and FileExporter became standard features on all Wikis during the first week of August. They help you transfer files from local wikis to Wikimedia Commons with the original file information and history intact. [४९]
Problems
- The mobile skin displays a message at the bottom of the page about who edited last. This message showed raw wikitext. This has now been fixed. Some messages in Structured Discussions and content translation may still appear as raw wikitext. Developers are working on it. [५०]
Changes later this week
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from August 11. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from August 12. It will be on all wikis from August 13 (calendar).
Future changes
- All wikis will be read-only for a few minutes on September 1. This is planned between 13:30 and 15:30 UTC. More information will be published in Tech News and will also be posted on individual wikis in the coming weeks. [५१][५२]

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Recent changes
- If you revert an edit using the undo link your edit is marked with an
undo
tag. This will now only happen if you don't change anything in the edit window before publishing the undo. This is to keep users from marking edits as undos when they actually do something else. [५३] - The new OOUI version will not work with Internet Explorer 8. This means the wikis will look strange and not work well in Internet Explorer 8. This was reported in Tech/News/2020/17. This is because keeping the wikis working with very old browsers creates other problems. [५४]
Changes later this week
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 18 August. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 19 August. It will be on all wikis from 20 August (calendar).
Future changes
- All wikis will be read-only for a few minutes on September 1. This is planned between 13:30 and 15:30 UTC. More information will be published in Tech News and will also be posted on individual wikis next week. This is a reminder. You can help by translating the announcement message. [५५][५६]

Reply tool[संपादन]
The Reply tool has been available as a Beta Feature at the Arabic, Dutch, French and Hungarian Wikipedias since 31 March 2020. The first analysis showed positive results.
- More than 300 editors used the Reply tool at these four Wikipedias. They posted more than 7,400 replies during the study period.
- Of the people who posted a comment with the Reply tool, about 70% of them used the tool multiple times. About 60% of them used it on multiple days.
- Comments from Wikipedia editors are positive. One said, أعتقد أن الأداة تقدم فائدة ملحوظة؛ فهي تختصر الوقت لتقديم رد بدلًا من التنقل بالفأرة إلى وصلة تعديل القسم أو الصفحة، التي تكون بعيدة عن التعليق الأخير في الغالب، ويصل المساهم لصندوق التعديل بسرعة باستخدام الأداة. ("I think the tool has a significant impact; it saves time to reply while the classic way is to move with a mouse to the Edit link to edit the section or the page which is generally far away from the comment. And the user reaches to the edit box so quickly to use the Reply tool.")[५७]
The Editing team released the Reply tool as a Beta Feature at eight other Wikipedias in early August. Those Wikipedias are in the Chinese, Czech, Georgian, Serbian, Sorani Kurdish, Swedish, Catalan, and Korean languages. If you would like to use the Reply tool at your wiki, please tell User talk:Whatamidoing (WMF).
The Reply tool is still in active development. Per request from the Dutch Wikipedia and other editors, you will be able to customize the edit summary. (The default edit summary is "Reply".) A "ping" feature is available in the Reply tool's visual editing mode. This feature searches for usernames. Per request from the Arabic Wikipedia, each wiki will be able to set its own preferred symbol for pinging editors. Per request from editors at the Japanese and Hungarian Wikipedias, each wiki can define a preferred signature prefix in the page MediaWiki:Discussiontools-signature-prefix. For example, some languages omit spaces before signatures. Other communities want to add a dash or a non-breaking space.
New requirements for user signatures[संपादन]
- The new requirements for custom user signatures began on 6 July 2020. If you try to create a custom signature that does not meet the requirements, you will get an error message.
- Existing custom signatures that do not meet the new requirements will be unaffected temporarily. Eventually, all custom signatures will need to meet the new requirements. You can check your signature and see lists of active editors whose custom signatures need to be corrected. Volunteers have been contacting editors who need to change their custom signatures. If you need to change your custom signature, then please read the help page.
Next: New discussion tool[संपादन]
Next, the team will be working on a tool for quickly and easily starting a new discussion section to a talk page. To follow the development of this new tool, please put the New Discussion Tool project page on your watchlist.

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Changes later this week
- Normally pages can be moved to a title that has no existing page yet or to a page that has only one revision, which is a redirect to the page to be moved. A new user right allows editors to move pages over one-revision pages that redirect to anywhere. [६०]
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 8 September. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 9 September. It will be on all wikis from 10 September (calendar).
All MediaWiki API modules will now use
watchlist
instead ofwatch
. This was inconsistent before. [६१]
Future changes
- The Wikipedia Android app team might work on patrolling tools in the future. You can let them know what tools would be useful for you or for less experienced patrollers. See the page on mediawiki.org.
- OTRS will be updated to a new version. This will probably take around two days. OTRS agents will not have access to the system during these days. Emails that come in during the update will be delivered when the update is done. The plan is to start around 08:00 UTC on 14 September. This could change. [६२]
- The Wikipedia Android app will send push notifications if users want them. This could help you see for example when someone wrote on your talk page or your edit was reverted. This will need Google Play Services to work. It will also be possible to get the app without Google Play Services but push notifications will not work. Google Play Services is also used to make the app work for Android 4.4 users. [६३][६४]
Wikimedia code review could move to GitLab. It would be hosted on Wikimedia servers. You can take part in the consultation.
Dropdown menus in the Vector skin use a
.menu
class. This will not work in the future. Scripts can usenav ul
instead..vectorTabs
and.vectorMenu
will also not work. Some scripts need to be updated. You can read more in Phabricator.

- There is a new tag for reverted edits. For example you can see it in the recent changes feed or in the article history. It is added to edits when they have been undone, rollbacked or manually reverted to an older version of the page. [६९][७०]
Changes later this week
- The number of times you can do something in a period of time on wiki is limited. This could be the number of edits per minute or the number of users you email in a day. Some users are not affected by all limits because of their user rights. They could soon see the limit even if it does not affect them. [७१]
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 22 September. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 23 September. It will be on all wikis from 24 September (calendar).

Tech News: 2020-40[संपादन]
Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Recent changes
- Admins can now see links to diffs of deleted revisions on Special:AbuseLog. This uses the interface of Special:Undelete. [७२]
- Editors are automatically added to some user groups. For example editors are added to autoconfirmed users when they have edited enough times and long enough. Abuse filters can hinder users from automatically getting user rights for a period of time. They can also remove rights user have. Wikis can now ask to change how long this period of time is for their wiki in Phabricator. It is currently five days. [७३]
Problems
- Last year some abuse filters stopped working because of a new change. If they tried to use variables that were unavailable for that action they would fail. This has now been fixed. [७४]
Changes later this week
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 29 September. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 30 September. It will be on all wikis from 1 October (calendar).
Future changes
- You can't see the language links to other language versions from the talk page or history page. They are also not shown when you edit an article. This could change. It is not decided if for example the history page should link to another history page or to the article. You can take part in the discussion in Phabricator.
- The link colours could change. This is to make the difference between links and other text more clear. You can read more in Phabricator.
- In your preferences you can choose to get different notifications on the web or by email. You will see
Apps
as one of the alternatives later this week. This is because the Android and iOS Wikipedia apps will use push notifications for those who want them. You can see the preferences on the test wiki. The goal is to have push notifications on Android in October and on iOS in early 2021. [७५] - You can soon put pages on your watchlist for a limited time. This could be useful if you want to watch something for a shorter time but don't want it on your watchlist forever. It now works on mediawiki.org and will come to more wikis later. You can read more and see when it will come to other wikis.
- You can see what Wikimedians think are the best new technical tools this year. You can also nominate them.

- There is a new tool where you can see which home wiki users have in discussions on Meta. This can help show which communities are not part of the discussion on wikis where we make decisions that affect many other wikis.
- You can now thank users for file uploads or for changing the language of a page. [७६]
Problems
- There were many errors with the new MediaWiki version last week. The new version was rolled back. Updates that should have happened last week are late. [७७]
- Everyone was logged out. This was because a user reported being logged in to someone else's account. The problem should be fixed now. [७८]
Many pages have JavaScript errors. You can read more and now see a list of user scripts with errors.
Changes later this week
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 6 October. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 7 October. It will be on all wikis from 8 October (calendar).
- Letters immediately after a link are shown as part of the link. For example the entire word in
[[Child]]ren
is linked. On Arabic wikis this works at both the start and end of a word. Previously on Arabic wikis numbers and other non-letter Unicode characters were shown as part of the link at the start of a word but not at the end. Now only Latin and Arabic letters will extend links on Arabic wikis. [७९]
Future changes
- You will be able to read but not to edit the wikis for up to an hour on 27 October around 14:00 (UTC). It will probably be shorter than an hour. [८०]

In the AbuseFilter extension, the
rmspecials()
function will be updated soon so that it does not remove the "space" character. Wikis are advised to wrap all the uses ofrmspecials()
withrmwhitespace()
wherever necessary to keep filters' behavior unchanged. You can use the search function on Special:AbuseFilter to locate its usage. [९३]- Some gadgets and user-scripts use the HTML div with the ID
#jump-to-nav
. This div will be removed soon. Maintainers should replace these uses with either#siteSub
or#mw-content-text
. A list of affected scripts is at the top of phab:T265373.

Hello, I usually edit English Wikipedia and I'm working on the title draft and wanted to let you know that I have removed speedy deletion tag from this page in Marathi Wikipedia because I believe an afd discussion will be better (is the right way) than speedy deletion in this case now. Thank you -- Pratyush.shrivastava (चर्चा) २१:००, २४ ऑक्टोबर २०२० (IST)
Pratyush.shrivastava: I am happy to know that you edit English language Wikipedia but here we don't have any hard protocols as such for deletion. I would like you to kindly respect and do through the local deletion policies rather than reverting my deletion requests. I have dealth such vandalisms in the past and I am happy that this one too will have a perfect ending. Happy editing ahead. --Tiven2240 (चर्चा) २१:३४, २४ ऑक्टोबर २०२० (IST)
- साचा:Reply to Thank you for responding, I wanted you to know that I'm not enforcing English Wikipedia policies here, I'm just new in here. Sharing my veiws, I don't think this is vandalism (we should warn creator) however, this maybe some type of self promotion. Kindly accept my apologies for reverting your edit, you can carry on with your working. Happy editing, Thank you -- Pratyush.shrivastava (चर्चा) ००:१३, २५ ऑक्टोबर २०२० (IST)

- Last week, links to "diffs" from mobile watchlists and recentchanges were linking to page-revisions instead of diffs. This has now been fixed. [१००]
Changes later this week
- There is no new MediaWiki version this week.
Future changes
- Since the introduction of the interface administrators user group in 2018, administrators couldn’t view the deleted history of CSS/JS pages. Now they can. [१०१]
- There was a problem with the Change Tags. The software would apply the "Reverted" tag to any page actions such as page-protection changes if they came directly after a reverted edit. This has now been fixed for new edits. [१०२]
- The Reply tool will be offered as an opt-in Beta Feature on most Wikipedias in November. Another announcement will be made once the date is finalized. [१०३]

Recent changes
- You can no longer read Wikimedia wikis if your browser uses very old TLS. This is because it is a security problem for everyone. It could lead to downgrade attacks. Since October 29, 2020, users who use old TLS versions will not be able to connect to Wikimedia projects. A list of browser recommendations is available. All modern operating systems and browsers are always able to reach Wikimedia projects. [१०४]
There is a new automatic tracking category available: Pages with non-numeric formatnum arguments. It collects pages which use the
{{formatnum}}
parser function with invalid (non-numeric) input, e.g.{{formatnum:TECHNEWS}}
. Note that{{formatnum:123,456}}
is also invalid input: as described in the documentation, the argument should be unformatted so that it can be reliably and correctly localised. The tracking category will help identify problematic usage and double-formatting. The new tracking category's name can be translated at translatewiki. [१०५]
Changes later this week
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from November 3. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from November 4. It will be on all wikis from November 5 (calendar).
- Administrators and stewards will be able to use a special page (Special:CreateLocalAccount) to force local account creation for a global account. This is useful when account creation is blocked for that user (by a block or a filter). [१०६]
- The Reply tool will be offered as an opt-in Beta Feature on most Wikipedias on November 4. This change excludes the English, Russian, and German-language Wikipedias, plus a few smaller Wikipedias with special circumstances. You can read the help page and the troubleshooting guide for more information. [१०७]
Future changes
- A discussion has been restarted about using a Unicode minus sign (− U+2212) in the output of
{{formatnum}}
when it is given a negative argument. [१०८] - In the future IP addresses of unregistered users will not be shown for everyone. They will get an alias instead. There will be a new user right or an opt-in function for more vandal fighters to see the IPs of unregistered users. There would be some criteria for who gets the user right or opt-in. There will also be other new tools to help handle vandalism. This is early in the process and the developers are still collecting information from the communities before they suggest solutions.

Future changes
- You can see reference previews. This shows a preview of the footnote when you hover over it. This has been a beta feature. It will move out of beta and be enabled by default. There will be an option not to use it. The developers are looking for small or medium-sized wikis to be the first ones. You can let them know if your wiki is interested. [१०९]
- From November 16 the categories will not be sorted in order for a short time. This is because the developers are upgrading to a new version of the internationalisation library. They will use a script to fix the existing categories. This can take a few hours or a few days depending on how big the wiki is. You can read more. [११०][१११]

- Listings on category pages are sorted on each wiki for that language using a library. For a brief period on 16 November, changes to categories will not be sorted correctly for most languages. This is because the developers are upgrading to a new version of the library. They will then use a script to fix the existing categories. This will take a few hours or a few days depending on how big the wiki is. You can read more. [११२][११३]

Recent changes
- You can choose to be reminded when you have not added an edit summary. This can be done in your preferences. This could conflict with the CAPTCHA. This has now been fixed. [१२८]
- You can link to specific log entries. You can get these links for example by clicking the timestamps in the log. Until now, such links to private log entries showed no entry even if you had permission to view private log entries. The links now show the entry. [१२९]
- Admins can use the abuse filter tool to automatically prevent bad edits. Three changes happened last week:
- The filter editing interface now shows syntax errors while you type. This is similar to JavaScript pages. It also shows a warning for regular expressions that match the empty string. New warnings will be added later. [१३०]
- Oversighters can now hide multiple filter log entries at once using checkboxes on Special:AbuseLog. This is how the usual revision deletion works. [१३१]
- When a filter matches too many actions after it has been changed it is "throttled". The most powerful actions are disabled. This is to avoid many editors getting blocked when an administrator made a mistake. The administrator will now get a notification about this "throttle".
There is a new tool to build new skins. You can also see existing skins. You can give feedback. [१३२]
Bots using the API no longer watch pages automatically based on account preferences. Setting the
watchlist
towatch
will still work. This is to reduce the size of the watchlist data in the database. [१३३]Scribunto's file metadata now includes length. [१३४]
CSS and JavaScript code pages now have link anchors to line numbers. You can use wikilinks like w:en:MediaWiki:Common.js#L-50. [१३५]
There was a new version of MediaWiki last week. You can read a detailed log of all 763 changes. Most of them are very small and will not affect you.
Changes later this week
The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 12 January. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 13 January. It will be on all wikis from 14 January (calendar).

- You will be able to read but not to edit Wikimedia Commons for a short time on 26 January at 07:00 (UTC). [१३६]
- MassMessage posts could be automatically timestamped in the future. This is because MassMessage senders can now send pages using MassMessage. Pages are more difficult to sign. If there are times when a MassMessage post should not be timestamped you can let the developers know.

Reply tool[संपादन]

The Reply tool is available at most Wikipedias.
- The Reply tool has been deployed as an opt-out preference to all editors at the Arabic, Czech, and Hungarian Wikipedias.
- It is also available as a Beta Feature at almost all Wikipedias except for the English, Russian, and German-language Wikipedias. If it is not available at your wiki, you can request it by following these simple instructions.
Research notes:
- As of January 2021, more than 3,500 editors have used the Reply tool to post about 70,000 comments.
- We have preliminary data from the Arabic, Czech, and Hungarian Wikipedia on the Reply tool. Junior Contributors who use the Reply tool are more likely to publish the comments they start writing than those who use full-page wikitext editing.[१३७]
- The Editing and Parsing teams have significantly reduced the number of edits that affect other parts of the page. About 0.3% of edits did this during the last month.[१३८] Some of the remaining changes are automatic corrections for Special:LintErrors.
A large A/B test will start soon.[१३९] This is part of the process to offer the Reply tool to everyone. During this test, half of all editors at 24 Wikipedias will have the Reply tool automatically enabled, and half will not. You can still turn it on or off for your own account in Special:Preferences.
New discussion tool[संपादन]

The new tool for starting new discussions (new sections) will join the Discussion tools in Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures at the end of January. You can try the tool for yourself.[१४०] You can leave feedback in this thread or on the talk page.
Next: Notifications[संपादन]
During Talk pages consultation 2019, editors said that it should be easier to know about new activity in conversations they are interested in. The Notifications project is just beginning. What would help you become aware of new comments? What's working with the current system? Which pages at your wiki should the team look at? Please post your advice at notifications-talk.
